Yesterday, Kingfield Farmers Market in South Mpls was a buzz with locavores buying and selling and chatting with one another. It was a perfect summer day to demo Firecracker Slaw, made with veggies bought at the market for only $10. I‘ve posted the recipe on my Recipes page. It can also be found on the [...]

Come see me at 10.30am down at 4310 Nicollet Ave, Mpls. It’s open every Sun 8:30 am -1 pm. I am planning to make — with kids’ assistance [...]

“Do the locavore” is a song I sang to open my farmers’ market show & demo ”Little Locavores”. Adapted from “Do the Locomotion”. Very catchy! Now that local veggies are in, I’m doin’ the locavore and buying from farmers like Reimann Family Farm in St Francis. I also hope to buy produce from youth-run community gardens. [...]

For tomorrow’s last Mpls Farmers Market “Little Locavore” show of the season, the kids and I will be making and offering samples of Vegan Wasabi Kohlrabi Herb Potato Salad. We’ll also serve more of last week’s hit Ruby Chocolate Beet Bundt Cake, this time with an icing. So far, I have only the “Before” photos. Tomorrow, [...]
Zucchini Linguine

Raw zucchini linguine (link to recipe) was a hit at today’s Little Locavore shows! My wonderful volunteers really got into food preparation. We could have spent the entire half hour on that. But, then we would not have had the chance to enjoy the Zucchini Baton Relay Race or the Aunty Oxidant & Free Radicals [...]
Aunty Oxidant to the rescue

Today at Little Locavores (Mpls Farmers Market), rascally free radicals (ie, adorable kids) ganged up on a poor adult, who was feeling sick and weak. Why didn’t his body’s defenses fight them off? Because he did not eat enough vegetables or fruits, and therefore had no antioxidants to boost his immune system. Enter stage left: [...]
Mr Green Bean; honey cream cheese

This past Sunday, Little Locavore focused on fresh green (string) beans, with tastings of green, yellow and purple, both raw and steamed. Volunteers helped me prep them by snipping off the stems with kids’ scissors. They mixed local honey from a market vendor with reduced fat cream cheese for taste-testing raw beans plain and with the spread. [I'd [...]

Sun’s Little Locavore was a blast! We played true/false with some little-known facts about Cucumbers and debuted the “Walk Like An Egyptian Cucumber Baton Desert Relay”. Yes, a la Steve Martin. Thanks to Locavores Zander and Everett, Paige, Cameron, and Sienna, Mags, Emily, Josie, Brook and Brin! After running the desert relay, they showed the audience 4 kinds [...]
